never mind, I think the logic is quite clear, we can do something in bcc:

1) adopt new _{kernel,user} interface whenever possible, this will
work fine for all arch with new kernel versions

2) for old kernel versions which lack the _{kernel,user} support,
fall back to old bpf_probe_read(), but take care of the Archs which
have overlaping address space - like s390, and just error out for it
